At yesterday's Samsung Unpacked event, the main focus was quite understandably on its new flagship series Galaxy S21, so smaller announcements, such as those regarding new software features, could fit in. One of them is a highly automated tool called Object Eraser, which allows the user to erase people or things that have no business being there from the background of a photo. The new feature will be released to the world as part of the photo editor present in the Samsung Gallery app.
The tool works very similarly to Content-Aware Fill, one of the most popular modern additions to globally popular graphic editor Adobe Photoshop. You just need to take a photo, select an area in it with disturbing or otherwise undesirable detail and let Samsung's machine learning algorithms work.
This is an ideal scenario, of course, and it will probably take some time for the South Korean tech giant to fine-tune its algorithms so that the result is comparable to the aforementioned Adobe Photoshop feature.
The tool will be available first on the series phones Galaxy The S21 and later should arrive on some older devices via an update Galaxy (more precisely, those built with software on Androidon 11/One UI 3.0).
